Member Function Documentation

◆ GetNormalized()

template<class Real >
ChVector2< Real > chrono::ChVector2< Real >::GetNormalized ( ) const
inline

Return a normalized copy of this vector, with euclidean length = 1.

Not to be confused with Normalize() which normalizes in place.

◆ Normalize()

template<class Real >
bool chrono::ChVector2< Real >::Normalize ( )
inline

Normalize this vector in place, so that its euclidean length is 1.

Return false if the original vector had zero length (in which case the vector set to [1,0,0]) and return true otherwise.

◆ operator*()

template<class Real>
ChVector2< Real > chrono::ChVector2< Real >::operator* ( const ChVector2< Real > &  other) const
inline

Operator for element-wise multiplication.

Note that this is not the dot product.

◆ SetNull()

template<class Real >
void chrono::ChVector2< Real >::SetNull ( )
inline

Set the vector to the null vector.

Sets the vector as a null vector.
